PML has designed and manufactured a heavy duty, extra capacity Ford 10R80 transmission pan for 2017 and newer trucks and SUVs.
Benefits of PML 10R80 Transmission Pan:
- Drain and magnetic drain plug for easier fluid changes
- Extra capacity
- Heavy duty sand cast aluminum construction (not plastic)
- Finned to increase surface area for heat dissipation
- Thick walls and gasket flange
- PML pan fits without modification to cooling tubes or exhaust
Installation Notes:
- Access to the stock pan may be difficult. On some vehicles, cooling tubes, exhaust pipes, frame cross members and skid plates must be removed or loosened and lowered. Video of an installation: https://youtu.be/llKEEhhZ1tg
- Thin, metal heat shielding around the edges of the stock pan may need to be trimmed or removed to fit on the PML pan.
- Flange does not have holes on the side for blanket that wraps around transmission (blanket may only be on 2017 models).
- PML pan may not work with factory skid plates without modification to plate or spacers.
Pan may also fit 10R60 transmissions.
Always check your vehicle configuration before ordering. There is a restocking fee for returns.

Stock Pan, Transmission, Filter and Dipstick
PML designed our transmission pan to work with the stock transmission, filter, gasket, dipstick and level check/fill procedure. PML allowed for the cooling lines, plates, exhaust and frame near the pan.

On some vehicles, there is heat shielding insulation around the stock pan and undercarriage protection. There are also cooling tubes and exhaust pipes that must be moved to access the stock pan.
Ford and GM jointly developed a 10 speed transmission. Ford calls it a 10R80 and GM calls it a 10L80. The pans are not the same.
Inside of PML Pan and Bosses on Side Walls
The inside of the PML pan has ridges similar to the stock pan.
On the left and right side walls, PML has two bosses. These are thick, round areas that can be drilled and tapped. A common use would be for a temperature sending unit to monitor the temperature of the fluid in the pan. The bosses are about 0.9 inches in diameter.

Drain and Optional Temperature Sending Unit Machining

Drain hole information:
- Drain hole is on the bottom of the pan, toward the rear, on the passenger/right side
- Magnetic drain plug is a 3/8 NPT and recessed so the plug does not hang down
- Magnetic drain plug is included
- A drain hole makes servicing the transmission easier as fluid can be replaced without dropping the pan
Optionally, this pan can be machined for an aftermarket temperature sending unit. There are bosses (thick, round areas) on the left and right sides of the pan for this. If you would like PML to drill and tap a hole, there is a custom machining charge. Select the option when you purchase before clicking ADD TO CART button. A plug for the hole is included. The standard size is 1/8 NPT. Call or email if you need a different size.
